Hello I hope you all had a good jubilee wherever you were. I was at Newby Hall Tractor show. It was a good break and nice to meet up with a lot of friends we have not seen for 2 years. It was a good turn out considering there was so much going on this same weekend. Now the shows have started they are coming round fast. My being away and the 1st of the month being a Wednesday has meant a rush to get newsletter out. Newsletter editor has also been poorly so our apologies for content. Hope your better soon Elaine. There will be a committee meeting before club night this month. See you soon and thank you
Ernie.
